Carmelo tried to dunk on Yao Ming....

Fri Oct 31, 2003 3:06 pm

He tried to dunk facing the rim from the front and Ming stuffed him, then Melo got the rebound and went up again, got rejected by Yao!

What 6'7" player could dunk on Ming? Oh yeah Kobe!

You can say others, but seeing is believing.

Vince Carter could probably jump over top of Yao ming. He jumped overtop a guy 3' shorter.

I don't think that french dude VC jumped over was standing completely straight up.
Still an impressive feat nonetheless :shock:

lol so weise is 10 foot 5 inches? lol... :lol:

Weis is like 7'2........but VC would have a harder time dunkin on Ming because
1. he's 3 inches taller
2. He has a bigger wingspan than Weis therefore can reach higher
and most importantly MING is not a stiff

today was the first time i got to see him play and i was impressed with his overall aggressiveness and his willingness to initiate/take on contract. kudos to him for attacking yao. he drove on yao on another occasion and did draw a foul

I wept with joy as I was watching the game, Yao was on a good roll, and he capped it off with that successive rejection. Everyone should have went home after that play... :wink:

Well, I ALMOST wept with joy.

Finley posterised Ming too last season didnt he?

Don't know how tall Finley is though, he's in the 6'6-6'8 category, I think.

Yeah finely dunked on him, like a couple of days after kobe did it... Imagine yao as a fullback in american football... :lol:

Sat Nov 01, 2003 11:04 pm

Melo was a bit silly to attempt the dunk on the 2nd attempt and Ming had none of it............i can't even remember Ming jump off the floor

If your one of the tallest players in the league it's hard to think that nobody will try to dunk on you. :roll: I mean that some players will be trying to make their name big with dunking on Yao(Melo's name is big but still) or they just want to prove that they can do it...(Kobe,Finley)Wouldve Melo tried it twice in a game if he wouldve not want to get on a highlight reel?
